Do we need another American Revolution, why or why not?
What is your opinion?

MadamButterfly

personally, I think we need a social revolution, a twenty-first century cultural, musical, and wonderfully artsy Renaissance....then again, America needs many things....free healthcare, more funding for public schools, a better form of government (you are free to interpret that in any way you like)....etc. etc. ad nauseum.

Good question. Yes, it's about time. There has been mistake after mistake in the leadership and Iraq, just to name two.

But... for a positive about our president, he is pro-life and pro-war. No hypocrite there.

And, for love and peace, they can coexist if persons use the power of the dollar (or lack of it in funding the Iraq and subsequent Afghanistan fiasco) in Congress to send a clear message that this war is a mistake. Want change? Bring more power to the farmers in these countries and redesign a way of living through alternative crops - not poppys. Recognize their beliefs/religion is theirs alone to bring meaning. And that we could assist through teaching how to create a new judicial system where persons feel they can go to their authorities and get consistent and fair hearing.

Yes, it is time for revolution. Write congressman, as well as your local representatives, to give a voice of concern for this great society.

Are you asking if we need a new constitution? Then no. America has it's problems. We will never be a perfect contry. May be if everyone would be an informed voter, then we would be better off. A revolution? Going a bit too far I think.

Of course we do. It's been needed for some time now. Maybe not a new constitution but we need some form of govenment (or a government authority) who will follow our constitution and not interpret it in a way that only benefits themselves and not the people.... The People are the ones who are supposed to be the power anyhow and it would seem that we've had no say in our government for sometime now.

We need another American Revolution and we are going to have one; beginning sooner than you might expect. It is nothing at all to do with the War in Iraq. That is nothing. It is about our freedoms that we are losing every, every, everyday. We have so many laws and we never really enforce the ones that make any sense at all. We need those 50 Caliber Machine Guns (HMGs) that the U. S. Department of Defense is about to turn over to us. Believe me, the USDoD is very much upset, also, with what is going on in this hell-hole of a worthless, sorry country. Remember those 26-High-Ranking Officials (both military and civilian) that took early retirement back during the Clinton Fiasco? . . . Well, they are all still very much alive . . . Alive and well, may I add? This time the Defense Department will be on our side and for sure; it is NOT going to be any kind of "Boston Tea Party!" We are going to experience the loss of several thousands of Americans right here on our home turf. Perhaps hundreds of thousands over a 5-to-6-year period. I will probably be one of those who will go early. I will be out there in the front; so to speak . . . Like Colonel Travis . . . No doubt. Anyway, I am ready! Let's get it on! Let's preserve our future generations NOW!!!
